Of course, Cao Chong also knew that it would never be a quick thing to integrate all the people in each county.

If it's better than ten days in the morning.

It also takes time to gather the army. In addition, Liangzhou is vast, gathering people from Dunhuang to Duyeze is not an easy task. It will take a long time to just take the distance, not to mention that these aristocratic families will not gather people so quickly, and it is even more normal to play Tai Chi.

Qianghu, in the past few days, we will arrive in Liangzhou. On the border of Wuwei, we can already see sporadic Qianghu. Many traveling merchants who took risks have lost their lives because of this, and hundreds of people have died.

The scattered Qiang and Hu outside are just Qiang and Hu close to Wuwei. The main force of the Western Qiang King has not arrived yet, but even so, Wuwei has begun to feel panic. If Cao Chong had not asked his soldiers to patrol the streets day and night, I wonder if there would be people with intent to use the pressure of Qiang and Hu attacks to incite the people to deal with him.

But in fact, not only the people, but also some generals became a little nervous.

This year is different from previous years. In previous years, the King of Xiqiang only sent a tribe of thousands or 20,000 or 30,000 people to grab something and left. But now it is different. The King of Xiqiang attacked the entire army, and the pressure of more than 100,000 or 200,000 people was like the sky when the storm came, with dark clouds and low pressure.

The same is true for Wuwei at this time, and the black clouds are squeezing the city and want to destroy it.

Wuwei County leaders Guzang, Xuanwei, Wuwei, Yuci, Cang Song, Xianmei, Li Jing, Zu Li, Xiu Tu, Luan Bird, Piao... Zhangye, Fengyin, and surrounded 14 counties.

Among them, Xiu Tu is the territory closest to the Xianbei area in Hebei, and the one who sees the most Qiang and Hu is the small town of Xiu Tu.

Xiu Tu was originally the royal city of the Huns, but when Emperor Wu of Han was about to surrender to the Han Dynasty, King Hunxie and King Xiu Tu were preparing to surrender to the Han Dynasty, King Xiu Tu suddenly changed his mind and was finally killed by King Hunxie. This group of Huns was also completely integrated into the Han people. The representative of them was naturally the most famous Emperor Wu of Han, Jin Rizhe, Jin Lun.

After hundreds of years of changes, Xiumao City has long lost its former glory. From a distance, it is just a small city made of earth and rocks. If it comes to defense, it cannot withstand the enemy's two charges.

Xiutu City has been the destination of business and travelers over the years, with slave and horse trafficking businesses constantly placing business. A small amount of taxes in Wuwei were earned from Xiutu City. At this time, Xiutu City had a defender of three thousand people.

However, for these Qiang and Hu people, three thousand people, it is probably only enough to be able to get between their teeth.

The walls of Guzang are wide and not as thick as those of Yecheng, but in terms of defense, for those Qiang and Hu who lack siege equipment, they are definitely unable to do anything about themselves.

As long as Cao Chong gathers all his troops in Guzang, he will have no way to deal with Cao Chong if he gives 100,000 troops to the King of Xiqiang.

But if you just curl up in Guzang City, the people outside the city will not be able to take into account the manor industry outside the city.

It is a huge loss for both the aristocratic family and Cao Chong.

What's more, the scattered wheat is not yet mature yet. If it is so ruined by Qiang and Hu, wouldn't that be a pity?

But if we want to block Qiang and Hu on Xuanwei Xiutu's side, Cao Chong's current troops would definitely not be able to do it.

The weapons of the Qiang and Hu are relatively poor, which is not wrong, but when it comes to bloodthirsty, the soldiers of the Qiang and Hu are not bad at all. If there are many people, even if Cao Chong's weapons are excellent, they will not be able to kill them.

What's more, people didn't think about fighting with you at all. They were here to steal things. If they were surrounded by this group of Qiang and Hu cavalry with strong mobility, and Guzang was loose at that time and was confiscated by Qiang and Hu, it would definitely not be the scene that Cao Chong would like to see.

In the end, there is still a shortage of troops!

Although the more than 10,000 people brought by Cao Chong did not consume much, plus the family soldiers of the Cao family of Wuwei of Zhang family, there were more than 30,000. As for the original officers and soldiers of Wuwei, Cao Chong had already asked him to take him to the coalition side, and also took away many mercenaries who were originally dependent on the Duan family of the Jia family.

Including all the troops that can fight in Wuwei, there are only 60,000 to 70,000, and the elite troops among them are probably only more than 10,000 Cao Chong's. The best thing for others is to stop running when they encounter Qiang and Hu.

If we had to fight against Qiang and Hu, rather than fight against the tough battle, Cao Chong felt it was a big deal.

If at this time, the coalition forces could be formed immediately. If they were directly formed, Cao Chong would have 80,000 more people. Eighty thousand people were not a small number. If they were replaced by the past, they would have been able to compete for the capital to dominate the world.

It’s not easy to deal with a mere Qianghu.

pity...

In a short period of time, these 80,000 people were not able to get Cao Chong's hands.

Unless Cao Chong does something and asks those aristocratic families to not delay their delays, they will immediately pull their own private soldiers over.

However, how can these cunning families be willing to put the life and death of their own family members in their own hands?

Cao Chong lowered his head and fell into deep thought.

Just as Cao Chong was thinking, Guo Xiao walked in with a happy face and bowed to Cao Chong.

"June, Zero Beigong, please see you again."

Zero-mulse Beigong Fu?

One is from the Eastern Qiang people and the other is from the Western Qiang people. What is the purpose of coming when the Western Qiang king came?

Cao Chong frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, he said to Guo Xiao: "Please invite these two people up."

After Cao Chong said this, both Cao Shuo, Jiuquan Prefect, or Ling Humei's eyes showed thoughtful appearance.

As representatives of the Qiang people in Liangzhou, Zero and Beigong Fu have more than 10,000 people in their hands, and these more than 10,000 people are no better than the Qianghu outside. The system is similar to the Han army, and their armor and weapons are not bad. When they come at this time, they probably have the purpose of making achievements and pleasing the Marquis of Luoyang.

The people present thought this way.

Cao Chong also had this idea, but deep in his eyes, there were always some suspicion.

Beigong Fu was fine. He had some social relationships with him before, but it was a bit strange that he had nothing to do with him. Moreover, Jia Quan and Zero had old friends. Now, whether it is Jia Chong or Jia Xiong, they are all under this Zero Zero.

If such a person comes, it would be strange if Cao Chong can trust him immediately.

However, although Cao Chong thought so in his heart, he did not show any emotion on his face.

Not long after, two people walked into the lobby.

One person is seven feet tall and strong, but he is wearing Han Chinese costume and shaking a feather fan on his hand, which is a bit literary. The other person is wearing armor. Kong Wu's powerful body and a wicked face are intimidating at first glance.

Beigong Fu and Ling sneaked in. They thought they were meeting Luoyang Hou privately, but they didn't expect that the big scene in front of them was a little stunned. Both of them knew each other.

Especially Zero Mix, he was already in the three counties of Wuwei, Jiuquan, Dunhuang, and was even more familiar with the people in the field.

"Zero Mian (Beigong Fu) Meet the Marquis of Luoyang."

Cao Chong nodded with a smile on his face and said, "Please get up, you two come here at this time, and you are also thinking of working for Liangzhou?"

Beigong Fu nodded and stepped forward and said, "I heard that the King of Xiqiang was going to invade my Liangzhou, so Beigong Fu came to help the Lord and Hou, and was willing to do a little bit of effort for the Lord and Hou."

"Hahahaha, OK! You are coming at this time, not just doing your best. You are a timely help!"

Hearing Cao Chong's praise, Beigong Fu also smiled on his face.

Seeing Beigong Fu like this, Ling Hun quickly stood up and said to Cao Chong: "Your Majesty, Ling Hun is here to share the worries of the Lord Majesty."

Cao Chong nodded, and he was not stingy if he praised him.

"Zero Hun is a brave Qiang man. In Liangzhou, Qiang and Han people are both one family, different from Qiang and Hu. I am very pleased that you can understand the righteousness so deeply."

When he heard Cao Chong's praise, Zero Meng's face looked a little better.

"I don't know if you two came, but how many people did you bring?"

This question determines what Cao Chong wants next, so Cao Chong couldn't wait to ask.

Zero Hun and Beigong Fu looked at each other, and finally Zero Hun stood up first.

"Your Majesty, our troops have brought more than 20,000 people, and they are all warriors. They can be treated as one for ten when dealing with Qiang and Hu."

After Zero Cun finished speaking, Beigong Fu also stood up.

"Your Majesty, the journey is long, and he has only brought 10,000 elite troops here. Although there are only 10,000 people, he still doesn't give in to the more than 20,000 people of the Zero-Grand Leader."

When Zero Moon heard Beigong Fu's words, he almost got angry. If there were too many giants present, he would have had a match with Beigong Fu on the spot. However, when Zero Moon looked at Zero Moon's eyes, he was also more angry.

Seeing this scene in front of him, some of the suspicion in Cao Chong's heart dissipated.

It is strange that Beigong Fu and Ling are able to meet him together. You must know that the relationship between the Eastern Qiang and the Western Qiang is not very good, and it is even possible to have a feud. The bloody war between these two parts is more than one or two, and they have been fighting for who is the leader of the Qiang people in Liangzhou. It would be strange if the relationship between the two is good.

Cao Chong had little doubt about Zero Hun and Beigong Fu coming to fight against Qiang and Hu.

Although the predecessor of the Qiang people was Qianghu, their hatred for Qianghu, or the hatred for them was even greater than their hatred for the Han people.

The relationship between this is like the relationship between traitors and Han people, but now they are Qiang traitors. As Qiang traitors, if Qiang Hu really invades, they will never have a way out.

"The two are pillars and the leaders of the Qiang people in Liangzhou. When the enemy is in front of you, you two cannot be in a straitor."

Linghun and Beigong Fu looked at each other, and then snorted, but saluted Cao Chong.

"promise!"

"Okay, since that's the case, please sit down."

Cao Chong made a gesture to the two of them. There, someone had already prepared a seat cushion.

Although Beigong Fu and Zero-meng are actually several levels lower than the prefect family on the field, he has soldiers, so Cao Chong attaches great importance to them. When Cao Shuo and others saw this scene, they did not speak, but chose to remain silent.

After Beigong Fu agreed, he went to his position. However, Ling Hun smiled on his face, but he bowed to Cao Chong and said, "Junhou, Ling Hun has a gift to give to Junhou."

A gift to me?

Cao Chong's eyes flashed, and he vaguely guessed something in his heart.

"Since it's a gift, then Chief Zero can bring it."

Ling Hun nodded with a smile and went out to call his people in. Sure enough, it was not as expected by Cao Chong. The so-called gift from Ling Hun was two people.

One is Jia Chong, who has a relationship with Cao Chong, and the other big man should be Jia Xiong.

"What does Chief Zero mean?"

"You are the one who is the remnant of Jia Quan, one is Jia Chong, the son of Jia Quan, and the other is Jia Xiong, the nephew of Jia Quan. These two people rebel against the Lord and the Lord, and fled to the Lord and the Lord. They also want the Lord and the Lord to retaliate against the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord will retaliate against him. I know the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord will not do such a confused thing, so I brought these two people to the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord and the Lord will deal with it."

Cao Chong looked at Ling Hun and finally smiled on his face.

Cao Chong did not say this. It was not that Cao Chong didn't care about this, but that he was not convenient for him to say this.

But this zero-distance is obviously good at being a human being. Cao Chong had a better impression of this zero-distance.

Cao Chong looked at Jia Chong and Jia Xiong with a look of indifference, pondered for a moment, and said, "Take these two people down and ask for a date to kill them. Leader Zero, you can sit down."
